The list I used was dated 1943.In the Consolidated List of Containers there is only the P59. I was wondering whether a P59 Mk1 existed as well and if so was it used for the same as the Mk2?
I know its been a long while but there is a P59 Mk1 and it was used for 25pr rounds or possibly the 3.45inch as it was originally called.I have two P59 boxes, one has on the lid P59 II T.S.C.-C 1944 and the other P50 Mk 2 CMC 1945. (the latter very rusty and being restored)
The 1944 box still retains beautiful markings for the 25Pdr HE shells while the 1945 dated does show remnants of markings but further cleaning will hopefully show what they were.
